Alluvio Aternity provides valuable data on machine health and performance but could benefit from more customizable reporting options and detailed performance counters.
"The dashboard is very effective."
"The data collected by the agents on each end point is the most valuable feature for us."
"DEM-Q (Digital Experience Management Quadrant) is very useful. This is where they stand out with their dashboard, because it gives us a picture of how our company is doing compared to the other businesses out there."
"As a financial institution, we have a lot of applications that are either written internally or bought from a vendor and customized for us. Having a tool that lets us monitor specific transactions in those applications allows us to focus on the transactions that are important to the business."
"It is useful for working out whether there are any issues in the network or between the endpoints. It is also useful for working out any performance issues. It has been useful for a lot of stuff around Teams. Our customers like to know what's happening with Teams when they call in. It is helpful for easily profiling users. It records all the applications that are being used for each user, and you can see what users are doing. It is very good in terms of performance. You don't have to wait forever to try and get reports or results. It is quite quick to get everything that you need out of the software."
"Desktop monitoring, and being able to understand the performance of applications that runs on the desktop."
"The most valuable feature is the alerting. As soon as we click on an incident, it takes us directly to the problematic PC. It's a direct solution. We click on an alert and it takes us to the incident details. The details show in different colors, in a graphical representation, and I like that the most."
"The user experience it provides is the most valuable feature for us."
"The dashboard allows us to easily track various metrics and quickly understand the overall health of our system."
"The feature that I found most valuable in Azure Monitor is its monitoring abilities. With Azure Monitor, you are able to monitor all of your cloud resources across multiple subscriptions in one dashboard and create solution-specific alerts that can trigger an email to the team responsible for that specific solution."
"The solution is quite stable."
"Log analytics and log queries are the most valuable features of Azure Monitor."
"I am impressed by the reporting on the average eight ports that we get from this solution."
"The most valuable feature is that it's stable. It hasn't crossed any thresholds."
"Technical support is good and helpful...The initial setup is easy."
"The solution very easily integrates with Azure services and in one click you can monitor your resource."
"I would like Alluvio Aternity to be certified by the IRAP for petrol companies in Australia."
"Right now, the user information being displayed by Aternity is received from AD. Ideally, we would like to see integration with other sources for user information, like other databases, so we are not limited to AD."
"Reports were a lot easier in the older versions"
"I want more reporting around asset management, with greater flexibility and customization ability."
"The only thing I can say which has been frustrating are the Tableau workspace/dashboard options out-of-the-box, at least prior to version 8."
"The thing that I think most companies like ourselves would want would be an easier way to customize custom scripts."
"To monitor these transactions, you need to look at it, analyze it and capture it. It requires a little bit of work, but in an environment like ours, you need it to be easier."
"The licensing model doesn't suit the market we are in and has room for improvement."
"Automation related to gathering metrics from more applications could be improved."
"n comparison to New Relic, which I've used before, it's a bit more complicated. It's not as easy to use. It also took some time to get it working. The implementation needs to be simpler."
"The troubleshooting logs need improvement. There should be some improvement there. I have a hard time finding the right logs at the right times whenever there is an issue occurring."
"If it is configured incorrectly, you can end up with a huge bill."
"Azure Monitor could improve the visualization aspect and integrate better with other third-party services."
"The monitoring of Kubernetes clusters needs improvement to be on par with competitors."
"We encounter some difficulties in monitoring the operating system on its own."
"Currently, it seems it's complicated to get the correct information in terms of what to do and how things work."
